About The Plus Ones
There are two artists with the name The Plus Ones: 1) An 'American Britpop' band from San Francisco, CA 2) An indie funk rock band from Boston, MA 1) Since playing their first show in 1999, under-sung San Francisco locals The Plus Ones have released two full-length albums, three EPs, completed nine national tours, performed a countless number of local shows, and have featured at least fourteen different band members. I think you'll agree, that's a lot of numbers. The current line-up is comprised of singer-songwriter and bassist Joel Reader (formerly of The Mr. T Experience), long-time drummer Luis Illades (also of Pansy Division), almost-as-long-time guitarist John Speranza and not-at-all-long-time guitarist Luke Powell. Their sound can be described as smart songs played at great volume. Some people say powerpop, some say indie rock, but the band themselves have been toying with a new phrase: American Britpop, which they define as, "the sound of an American band, trying to sound like a British band trying to sound like an American band." The Plus Ones are still working on the exact wording. 2) The Plus Ones are an up-and-coming group from Boston, Massachusetts. Founded by singer-songwriter Ben Henderson and their college friends, these 7 musicians hop genres and blur boundaries from punk to funk with a rock rhythm section, a singing keytarist, and three horns! Their debut single, I Could Try To Sleep, was released in May 2024, followed shortly by Back Thens / Roll The Dice. With a full album in production and plenty more music on the way, The Plus Ones aim to leave their mark on the local music scene and beyond. They hope you enjoy listening to their music as much as they enjoy making it! The Plus Ones' current lineup consists of 7 members: * Ben Henderson (keyboards, lead vocals) * Logan Kisiel (guitar, backing and lead vocals) * Cole Vandiver (trumpet, backing vocals) * Hayden DeAngelis (alto saxophone, backing vocals) * Connor Barnes (tenor saxophone, backing vocals) * Evan Gurry (drums) * James Pentikis (bass) (Follow for more!)
